Association between daily variations in the levels of atmospheric O3, PM2.5, and NO2 and the frequency of hospital visits due to respiratory diseases and hypertension in Mexico City using Generalized …
Background Environmental pollution is a significant public health issue in Mexico City. Patients with respiratory or cardiovascular diseases such as asthma or hypertension often experience exacerbations triggered by environmental factors. This retrospective time series epidemiological study analyzed the association between daily air pollution levels and the numbers of medical visits for exacerbations of cardiorespiratory diseases. Methods Records…

Type 1 diabetes in North East England and North Cumbria: Patterns and time trends in 0–14-year-olds from 2012 to 2020
Introduction It is important to understand patterns in the epidemiology of type 1 diabetes because they may provide insight into its etiology. We examined the incidence of type 1 diabetes in children aged 0–14 years, and patient demographics and clinical parameters at presentation, over the period 2012–2020 using the North East and North Cumbria Young Persons diabetes register. Methods Patients up to the age of 14 years with type 1 diabetes, and …

Understanding and Improving Emotion Regulation: Lessons from Psychological Science and the Humanities
Most psychology researchers define emotion regulation as manipulating the quality, duration, of intensity of emotions. This definition often assumes that the goal of life is to maximize positive emotions and minimize negative ones (hedonism). To understand the limitations of this definition, and the possibility of other definitions of emotion regulation, one must look to the humanities. Philosophy and research can be used to discuss the paradox o…
Responsible Leadership in Sport: An Ethical Dilemma
Sports, apart from providing entertainment, can provide an escape from everyday troubles, a community to belong to, and an opportunity to connect to the wider world. As such, sports have contributed to the unification of people, the development of peace and tolerance, and the empowerment of women and young people globally. However, sports’ widespread popularity has also contributed to “big money” opportunities for sports organizations, sporting v…
Age-related and socioeconomic inequalities in timeliness of referral and start of treatment in colorectal cancer: A population-based analysis
Background Poorer colorectal cancer survival in the UK than in similar countries may be partly due to delays in the care pathway. To address this, cancer waiting time targets were established. We investigated if socio-demographic inequalities exist in meeting cancer waiting times for colorectal cancer. Methods We identified primary colorectal cancers (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision C18–C20; n=35 142) diagnosed in the per…
Encouraging Physical Activity during and after Pregnancy in the Covid-19 Era, and beyond
Physical activity is known to decline during pregnancy and the postnatal period, yet physical activity is recommended during this time due to the significant health benefits for mothers and their offspring. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions imposed to reduce infection rates, pregnant and postnatal women have experienced disruption not just to their daily lives but also to their pregnancy healthcare experience and their mot…
Challenges, opportunities and solutions for local physical activity stakeholders: An implementation case study from a cross-sectoral physical activity network in Northeast England
Our findings suggest that academics, practitioners and policy-makers understand the complexities of implementing PA strategies, and the challenges of knowledge exchange. The updated UK PA guidelines policy presented an opportunity for multiple agencies to consider context-specific implementation and address enduring tensions between stakeholders. An organically derived implementation plan that prioritises PA, maps links to relevant local policies…
Age-related inequalities in colon cancer treatment persist over time: A population-based analysis
BACKGROUND: Older people experience poorer outcomes from colon cancer. We examined if treatment for colon cancer was related to age and if inequalities changed over time. METHODS: Data from the UK population-based Northern and Yorkshire Cancer Registry on 31 910 incident colon cancers (ICD10 C18) diagnosed between 1999-2010 were obtained. Likelihood of receipt of: (1) cancer-directed surgery, (2) chemotherapy in surgical patients, (3) chemotherap…
Contextual Behavioral Science and Global Mental Health: Synergies and opportunities
Do cardiometabolic, behavioural and socioeconomic factors explain the ‘healthy migrant effect’ in the UK? Linked mortality follow-up of South Asians compared with white Europeans in the Newcastle Hear…
BACKGROUND: Immigrants are sometimes found to have better health than locally born populations. We examined the mortality experience of South Asian origin and white European origin individuals living in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. METHODS: A linked 17-21 year mortality follow-up of a cross-sectional study of European (n=825) and South Asian (n=709) men and women, aged 25-74 years, recruited between 1993 and 1997. Poisson regression was used to estim…
Contextual Positive Psychology: Policy Recommendations for Implementing Positive Psychology into Schools
There has been a rapid growth in positive psychology, a research and intervention approach that focuses on promoting optimal functioning and well-being. Positive psychology interventions are now making their way into classrooms all over the world. However, positive psychology has been criticized for being decontextualized and coercive, and for putting an excessive emphasis on positive states, whilst failing to adequately consider negative experie…

OP83 Contribution of Behavioural Risk Factors and Socio-Economic Position to Mortality in British South Asian and European Adults: 17 Year follow-up of the Newcastle Heart Project Cohort
Background British South Asians experience excess cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Evidence for this is often based on studies using place of birth as a proxy for ethnicity. We examined the contribution of CVD risk factors and socio-economic position (SEP) to mortality in Europeans and South Asians, who provided confirmation of their ethnicity. Methods South Asian and European origin individuals, aged 25–74 years, were recrui…
O5-6.4 Lifecourse predictors of physical activity at age 50 years: The Newcastle Thousand Families Study
Introduction Beneficial effects of physical activity (PA) on health are well known, but limited evidence exists for lifecourse factors that may influence physical activity levels in adulthood. Our aim was to investigate the relative contributions of a range of factors from across life to variations in PA levels in the Newcastle 1000 Families Study. Methods Detailed information was collected prospectively during childhood. At age 50 years, 574 stu…
Do obese but metabolically normal women differ in intra-abdominal fat and physical activity levels from those with the expected metabolic abnormalities? A cross-sectional study
A sub-group of women exists who are metabolically normal despite being very obese. Differences in fat distribution, insulin resistance, and physical activity level are associated with metabolic differences in these women, but account only partially for these differences. Future work should focus on strategies to identify those obese individuals most at risk of the negative metabolic consequences of obesity and on identifying other factors that co…
Maternal psychosocial predictors of controlling parental feeding styles and practices
Obesity" and "Clinical Obesity" Men's understandings of obesity and its relation to the risk of diabetes: A qualitative study
Men in this study had a complex understanding of the interlinked importance of weight and fitness in relation to health. Obesity is understood as a description of people with centrally distributed fat, in association with low fitness levels. There is a need to increase understanding of the causes and consequences of diabetes. Discussion of increased health awareness by men round the age of 40 may indicate a window of opportunity to intervene at t…
